Danny Garcia - Behind the Ropes

But didn't you think his pad work and sparring was atrocious compared to Amir?
Agree about their characters though. His father came across as a right duck at the start of the film but by the end of it you couldn't help but like him.

 

Dude, sparring is to practice different aspects of your game. Comparing one sparring session to another is stupid. That sparring session meant absolutely nothing. Everyone has tactical sessions, wars and so on. Even Garcia mentioned yesterday how he's had tons of gym wars. It's normal, and nothing new, if you've been to a boxing gym, of course.

 

When r people gonna learn you shouldn't read anything into a sparring session. The mindset of sparring with 14oz gloves & headguard puts you in your comfort zone knowing u wont be hurt. It's completely different to fighting with 10oz gloves, no head guard & knowing ur career could be on the line if u lose.

 

Khan probs done well over 100 rounds of sparring in these 2 camps, anyone seen all of the sparring?? No


Yeah Angel and Garcia both are cool people, they are from poor background hope Garcia is getting a good purse for this fight.

 

Powerful but slow. His sparring was average. I'm not sure if he has the feet and timing to handle Khan but he is tough and that could change everything.

 

1 mill gross.

 

Not forgetting all the different types of sparing against various styles different intensities.

From what I saw, I though Garcia looked very slow and tagable. Kahn was ether just working out hard or making the same old mistakes he's been making for a while. Nothing new that couldn't see by looking at previous fights.

Ether way it was more like like both fighters in these filmed sparing sessions where showing exactly what they wanted to show the opponents to see. You certainly don't let these guys film anything new or important relating to the fight.

 

Spot on.

 

That's good man.

 

ye consideirng his ild man is training him he probably wont take as much as usual, but i heard in vegas the commision cuts the cheques there and then.

 

yea, i've warmed to him after watching that, thought he was a twat before like

 

lol, before I saw the video I was visualizing lightening fast combos in Danny's sparring sessions.. Just finished watching it and if those fighters were suppose to mimick Khan then they did a very poor job.. I saw was a slow Garcia with very minimal foot movement, standing his ground and throwing punches.. not saying Khan's sparring was out of the world.. but Garcia's was very average in Behind the Ropes..

It's going to be a great fight!
